and the only time I ever saw the band introduced, too. What could be better than a "Playin" opener? - four minutes into the show, and it's jam time. Before this show, I thought all those stories of the Garden pumping up and down were just stories - hah! - in fact the whole building was dancing to the tune of Phil's bass! Great show.
13 years old ... my big brother drove me there ... and then ... the bus came by and I got on, that's when it all began ...
It's absolutely true, you have to feel it to believe it. The only other band that I ever felt make the Garden move was Pearl Jam, and that was long after this... But the Dead did it every time...
I remember quite well John Scher's band intro, and also there was a film crew on stage for Playin In The Band. What a way to open a show, into the greatly anticipated Crazy Fingers which we had all heard about being broken out that summer! And I finally got to hear China/Rider - my all-time favorite... Also another highlight for me was High Time. Just super-sweet stuff. Take a look at the 'fan' photo - what a great shot. Bob and Jer in that red light, I can see them like it was yesterday... Thanks to the Phellow Phreak who posted it...
